You can run as much as you like so long as the car does not over heat.

run it as much as you want, if you got a stick i would let it cool down after 5 passes or less. cause your clutch will get hot as crap.

I always run my efan at the track and i havent had a problem. i normaly just give it like 10 mins between each run, if i am on a slow night at the track where i can hot lap it.

I have run as many as 18 times in one evening session. My car is faster when run hot for some reason.

Ive had my trans make a goofy ticking noise from running like 15 in a row. Havnt heard it since I changed my lube but I heard it twice and it was time to change it anyways at 40k. I also downshifted cuz my brakes sucked ass.
